Tail Winds Magazine’s Winter Gear Guide Features Cody Boots for Men

Wednesday, February 1st, 2012

“Skepticism morphed into admiration once we got these fashionable-functional boots out into the field. The men’s Cody lives up to its promise to keep feet warm and dry when you’re out riding the range or chillin’ after a day on the slopes. The handsome Nubuck leather uppers are uniquely lined with three layers of comfy thermo regulation,” comments Jo Osgarten of Tail Winds Magazine.

KEEN Shelby High Boots Review by Gear.com

Sunday, December 25th, 2011

“I have always loved KEEN’s outdoor oriented shoes, and thought I’d give their ‘Boulevard Line,’ shoes best suited for more casual use, a try,” comments Claire on Gear.com.

She goes on to add that “KEEN seems to do as well with casual shoes as they do their hiking boots- I love my Shelbys! Living in a rain forest, the idea of owning leather boots just seemed silly. However, when I saw that the Shelbys came with the KEEN.Dry technology that I know and trust, I figured I could give leather boots a try. So far, they’ve stood up to the downpours up here, and appear to be no worse for the wear.”

The good and bad according to Claire at Gear.com. . .

THE GOOD:

1) No heel! I love that I get the same traction that I would in a pair of KEEN hiking boots while wearing fancy leather boots and a skirt!

2) Boots have an elastic insert around the top that allows for some flexibility in your calves. They also have a bit bigger calf circumference than other leather boots I’ve tried on, which is nice for us more active ladies!

3) Zipper is also waterproof so you’re not getting moisture that sneaks in unexpectedly.

THE BAD:

1) Nothing negative to say about this boot. Another success for KEEN.

Gear Review: Keen Revel Winter Hiking Boots

Tuesday, November 29th, 2011

“I’ve been fooled by other hiking boots with the false promise of a tough grip in winter conditions, so I was surprised by how well the Keen Revel reacted to the variable trail conditions in front of me. The KEEN Revel’s dual climate rubber sole and traction lugs hold a grip in slick terrain with its deep tread design, suited for packed-down snow or muddy trails,” comments Stephanie Nitsch of Snowshoe Magazine.

“Like the name implies, the dual climate sole can handle contrasting temperature differences, which hardens in cold weather conditions for a better bite into snow. That technology allowed me to feel more confident and maintain my casual pace in spots where I’ve previously slid uncontrollably down small, slippery descents in other boots.”

Need Fabulous Boots for Fall? New Silverton Boots Are Versatile and Will Take You Right Into Winter

Monday, October 3rd, 2011

Need some fabulous boots for Fall? KEEN’s new Silverton Boot is versatile and will take you right into winter. The beefy Trailhead sole is fortified with KEEN.WARM technology which uses charcoal bamboo to insulate and create antimicrobial protection. They’re waterproof and will get you through a variety of weather, including the earlier, warmer part of Autumn without feeling too hot.

 

They’re tall, but not too tall. On me, they fall a couple of inches below the knee, providing extra warmth and looking great with skirts and dresses. You can walk all day in these, and they would be great for travel for that reason. I’m thinking Germany in the late Fall, early Winter, where everyone keeps warm but looks oh so fashionable and you walk everywhere. They’re high performance with a blend of high fashion. Wear them with skinny jeans by day, and a cute black dress at night.

Contemporary Findings for Modern Tots – Coranado River Boots

Tuesday, December 7th, 2010

“Those of us in New England have endured our fair share of rain this season. And with the weather turning cold, I’m definitely looking for combination footwear. Correction, cute, combination footwear. Leave it to the kings of outdoor chic. Keen has just what I’m looking for: the Coronado Rain Boot. I love the look of these puddle jumpers with their subtle mocha/mustard color combo and cool Converse stylin’. The little (What is that, a cat?) guy on them is appealing too. But mostly I’m really psyched to find a rain boot that’s actually warm. Shod in Coronado Boots’ cozy fleece lining, my little explorers will be able to tackle any all-weather adventure. ”
